\huge\textsf{Hey there!}


\mathsf{x^3 + 1 = 9}


\large\textsf{SUBTRACT 1 to BOTH SIDES}


\mathsf{x^3 + 1 - 1 = 9 - 1}


\large\textsf{CANCEL out: 1 - 1 because it gives you 0}


\large\textsf{KEEP: 9 - 1 because it helps solve for x}


\mathsf{9 - 1 = \boxed{\large\textsf{\bf 8}}}


\large\textsf{NEW EQUATION: }\mathsf{x^3 = 8}


\large\textsf{TAKE the CUBE ROOT from the numbers}


\mathsf{x = 8}^\mathsf{{(1)/(3)}}


\large\textsf{SIMPLIFY ABOVE and YOU HAVE YOUR ANSWER}


\boxed{\boxed{\large\textsf{Answer: \huge \bf x = 2}}}\huge\checkmark


\large\textsf{Good luck on your assignment and enjoy your day!}
